wtf is wrong with this picture?
i thought republicans were all supportive of our troops and democrats were all 'terrorist-loving sons of bitches'. oh well, i am happy to see a wedge driven in the republican party, and that a good percentage of them have a frikin soul and give half a shit about the people they sent to war.
please explain this
(and absolutely, i place a heavy value on the lives of the people of iraq, but this is an issue in itself, so please spare us the grandstanding and browbeating)
It costs money, spending money is bad especially when you have no money...
The republics just want to say that the Democrats stopped money going to Iraq and that its not their fault... Of course they are lying but well what political party doesn't do that all the time?
They may have figured that the guerilla war there has been
pretty quiet lately, atleast for American troops compared to
previous times, so it's not as needed as before.
